JC Stewart shares his new single ‘The Wrong Ones’.
It’s a bright, buoyant song in which his emotive and engaging vocal is supported by pulsating pop beats, breezy acoustic guitar and dramatic percussion.
That feel-good vibe plays against JC’s heart-on-sleeve honesty. As the song’s memorable hook questions, “Why do I just keep falling for the wrong ones? Is it you or is it me?”
“The wrong ones is a song I wrote after a year of failed attempts at finding “the right one”. It’s essentially an account of the different people I came across and at the end wondering if maybe I was the issue the whole time”
JC Stewart on “The Wrong Ones”
The Wrong Ones’ is released alongside another new track, ‘Stay’, which reiterates his ability to pen songs that are direct and universally relatable. JC co-wrote both songs, which were produced by Grammy-nominated Jonny Coffer.
The fourth generation of JC Stewarts in the family tree, the young musician was destined to continue the family grocery business of the same name in Northern Ireland, but instead deviated on the road toward pop stardom.
A chance encounter with Lewis Capaldi at an A-lister party in Hollywood took his music career to the next level. Feeling add odds with their surroundings, the pair decided to duck out for a beer in a local bar. That swift pint turned into an impromptu middle-of-the-night writing session in which ‘Hollywood’, from Lewis’s #1 debut album, was written.
